1998 F-150 4.2 L will not start Has a new battery installed - still only hear starter solenoid clunk?
It sounds like your starter motor has a problem if you are sure of batt.quality. You can remove starter motor and bench test, preferably in a vise than a hand. My guess is you will find it does not work. Approx $100 +your old one will get wreckers yard replacement, don't forget to ask to see a bench test.
How do you test a starter motor?
Take it to an auto parts store; they usually test 'em for free.

that test indicates that you need to replace the starter motor.if no clicking in this test , you would replace solenoid first. but clicking indicates solenoid works,so replace starter motor
Why is there a racing noise coming from starer on Chevy pick up and it won't start?
The starter bendix is not mating with the ring gear on the flywheel. The soleonoid on the starter motor may be faulty or the teeth of the flywheel or the bendix may have stripped. A bench test of the starter motor would be advised.
3 starters installed on Daewoo Lanos all turn but motor doesn't crank?
starters turn but doesnt crank? If the starters are turning and engaging they will at leat be turning the flywheel, unless there is tooth damage. try to rock the vehicle in gear to test. look at bottom pulley (where the belts are) to see if crank is turning, both when starter is turned and when rocked in gear, this will at least tell you that the flywheel is attached to the crankshaft, and if it turns off the starter motor it also shows the starter motor is working correctly. If this is turning via the starter motor the next thing i would check it the timing/cam belt. behind the plastic cover behind all the belts, especially if the engine is turning fast, wirring and not making the usual chug chug chug starter noise!
You have put two starters on a 1989 Nissan truck in the last month What could make the starters go bad?
This is a general that will cover most vehicles. I have found the major cause of repeat starter motor failiure is caused by the motor being energised when the engine is running. The most common cause of this problem is a faulty ignition switch, this causes current to flow to the starter motor when the engine is running. The way to test this is when the engine is running use a test light connected from the small terminal on the starter soleonoid to earth the test light should not light Good luck
How difficult is it to change out the starter in a 1994 Ford Escort?
Not that hard, it's located on the back side of the motor. Make sure it's the starter. You can test it with a remote starter. My car has the problem with the ignition, because it started when I hooked up the remote.
How 2002 Pontiac Grand AM automatic Car won't turnover Just hearing clicking noise under hood Headlights etc turns on Clyenoid sounds like it's good Should starter be replaced and how?

What would cause a clicking sound on a 1998 lumina and not start after a new starter is installed?
Use battery load tester and properly test battery. When battery fails, replace it.
Starter keep on turning after the motor is runing?
Sounds like the starter solenoid is stuck. Another possibility is the ignition key switch is not automatically returning from the start to run position. As the switches get older they seem to get stiff. Could be a weak spring in the switch or just gummed up lubricant. The easy test is to try turning the key counter clockwise after starting the engine and see if the starter motor stops running.
If the condenser motor starts with a push is the starter capacitor shot?
Most likely, yes. The ultimate test is if it can be pushed in either direction and it stays running in that direction.
